Were you looking for information about Gonorrhea? Gonarhea is a common misspelling of gonorrhea.
Gonorrhea is a type of sexually transmitted disease that could lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, epididymitis, or other serious complications if left untreated. It is caused by bacteria called
Neisseria gonorrhoeae and is spread through contact with the vagina, penis, mouth, or anus.
Symptoms of gonorrhea, which occur more often in men than in women, may include burning sensations during urination and abnormal discharge. Although antibiotics can stop the infection, it will not repair any permanent damage done by the infection.
